Strategic Innovation Career Academy
In today's global, fast-paced economy, innovation isn't only about new technology and great ideas. To drive value creation and sustain a competitive advantage, business leaders need a broad understanding of how enterprises develop, market, and finance change.
Tippie's Strategic Innovation Academy emphasizes a cross-functional approach to business. Whether you choose the Academy's Strategic Management & Innovation track or the Process & Operations Excellence option, you'll be immersed in dynamic, hands-on learning opportunities: shepherding an entirely new technology to market or working with a major corporate client to engineer process efficiency and earn your Six Sigma Greenbelt.
More Than a Student
- The Strategic Innovation Academy is focused on delivering skills that employers value. Last year 100% of SI Academy students secured summer internships and 95% had a job within three months of graduation. Check out where they're working.
- SI Academy students have a unique opportunity to engage with the Iowa Medical Innovation Group (IMIG), a program that brings together students from the MBA, law, medicine, and engineering programs to define strategies for bringing new medical devices to market.
